Ok my motor is a 85 H.P.force 85 model.I would like to put power tilt and trim on it.I have been looking at them on ebay . Only thing is, they don't come with any of the wiring or switches. What all will I need to wire it up correctly?? Any help would be appreciated! :)

There is quite a bit of wiring that is involved...you will need relays as well and fuse links and the harness for the switch.<br /><br />TMD

I just went through the same thing on my 40 hp. I bought a T&T unit with no relays , but I got it to work perfect by using a "mom- off- mom" switch. You need to fuse the pos. side with a 20amp. in line fuse. You got a blue and green wire coming from the T&T motor. Blue is up and green is down. On your switch you have 6 connections ,run the red+ to the left middle , black- to the right middle. Now blue from motor to the upper left ,and green to upper right. Now the tricky part, jumper wire from upper blue left to lower right and jumper wire from upper green right to lower left. The switch just switches the polarity for up and down. The only thing is it doesn't know when to stop by itself,you hold the switch until you get it where you want and stop. Hope this helps.. Bruce
